Clothing & Activities

What should you wear with the orthosis?

As a rule, loose-fitting clothes will mask the outline of your Orthosis. Slacks usually will be one size larger. For girls, slacks with elastic waistbands or drawstrings may fit more easily. Your standard shirt tops or blouses will fit with no problem with this type of Orthosis.
You have the most cosmetic-looking orthosis that is available today.

What can you do in the orthosis?

You can do anything you want to do providing it is satisfactory with your doctor: basketball, baseball, tennis, bowling, volleyball, gym, etc. You are encouraged to swim in you Orthosis in order to build up your confidence. Check with your doctor for specific instructions about swimming and other activities.
